As if Milwaukee needed any more reason to love Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich, the National League MVP made history again Sunday.
In a game against the St. Louis Cardinals, Yelich homered in the fourth game of the season, making him 4-for-4 so far this season. Saturday was his third time doing so, and the first time in franchise history a player had such a streak.
